"Culture of Protest" tonight features New CDs by Ry Cooder ("Buddy the Cat") & Abbey Lincoln

Since Latin American Journal host Corey Dubin, a leading AIDS activist, speaks soon at a rally for affordable health care for all (De La Guerra Plaza, starting at 5pm), Dick Flacks’ show, “Culture of Protest,” will be on from 6-8pm. Tonight, Professor Dick Flacks will be featuring several new albums that are major musical contributions to the culture of protest. Flacks says, “One is Ry Cooder’s amazing ‘Buddy the Cat’; and there’s the great Abbey Lincoln’s brand new collection of her songs, and other things as well.”
